According to Insider , the latest annual report on the Global Livability Index 2023 by the Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) - the economic research and analysis division of The Economist Group, is based on 5 criteria to evaluate city quality such as health services and infrastructure, including the quality of public transport and housing conditions to rank livable cities.
“The concept of liveability is simply a way of assessing which places in the world have the best or worst living conditions. Its role is to quantify the challenges faced by individuals in different places, and to create disparities between living environments,” the EIU said on June 22.
Austria's capital Vienna continues to top the list of the world's most livable cities.
According to the EIU report, Vienna, the capital of Austria, achieved an index of 98.4 this year, surpassing 173 other cities thanks to "meeting the conditions of quality health care and education , possessing a diverse culture and entertainment scene, ensuring infrastructure, and maintaining stability".
"Austria's capital, Vienna, has maintained this position for many years, only losing its leading spot due to the emergence of the Covid-19 pandemic," the report stated.
Denmark's Copenhagen follows closely behind in second place, while Canada has three cities in the top 10: Vancouver, Calgary and Toronto.
